Abacus Health Products, Inc. is a small, rapidly growing public company (CSE: ABCS; www.abacushp.com) based in Woonsocket, Rhode Island. Abacus believes it is the first company to develop and commercialize OTC topical medications blended with CBD hemp oil, produced and marketed in compliance with OTC monograph requirements. The company currently has 75 employees and expects to expand considerably over the next few years.

Abacus, launched in 2014, has two brands:

CBD CLINIC™ is a family of OTC topical analgesics. It was launched two and a half years ago and is marketed only to the US health practitioner community. Practitioners, such as physicians specializing in pain management, physical therapists, chiropractors, acupuncturists and massage therapists, both use and stock the product for their patients. Sales are, both, direct and through national distributors.

CBDMEDIC™ products, developed specifically for retailers and consumers, are available in four categories: External Analgesics, First Aid, Foot Care, and Acne. These are being introduced now to national, regional and independent pharmacies, grocers, mass merchandize retailers, and other retailer categories. An aggressive consumer advertising plan will be launching soon. Eight CBDMEDIC products were included in CVS’ March 2019 roll-out of topical products containing CBD hemp. Our products will soon be available from numerous retailers throughout the country. Establishing an international footprint is a key objective for the company, likely to be undertaken through multiple partnerships in different territories.

A Director of Legal and Regulatory Affairs is needed to support its expansion inside and outside the US. This position will report directly to company co-founder.

Key Responsibilities:

Create and manage a plan and budget to meet the company’s legal and regulatory objectives

Plan and manage strategies to ensure regulatory compliance (e.g., FDA) for the company and its products, in the US and other selected countries (in coordination with outside counsel)

Secure product registrations or clearances from regulatory and other agencies, where necessary, for commercial distribution and sales in the US and other selected countries (in coordination with outside counsel and regulatory consultants)
